Difficult mountain bike route linking the Mervent forest and the town of Fontenay-le-Comte.
This beautiful route combines rolling sections on the plains and more technical sections in the forest. The walk takes you through the villages of L'Orbrie and Saint-Michel-le-Cloucq.
In the latter you can stop off at a lovely picnic area where you will discover a renovated wash-house.
Start: Cemetery car park (Chemin de Bernevaud) in Saint-Michel-le-Cloucq
